To split or not to split middle school student populations as they feed into Hays CISD high schools was one of a handful of talking points tackled by a 35-person rezoning committee, which met for the first time Thursday.
The meeting, held at the Hays CISD Performing Arts Center, is one of the first steps the district is taking in redrawing attendance zones in preparation for the August 2019 opening of Johnson High, located along RM 967 near Carpenter Hill Elementary.
Tim Savoy, Hays CISD chief communication officer, said the district plans to bring a rezoning recommendation from the committee to school board trustees for a possible vote by December, at the latest. Redrawing attendance zones is the first of several processes leading up to Johnson High’s opening, which includes the hiring of personnel, as well as budgeting.
